Chasing Mona Lisa: A Novel by Tricia Goyer and Mike Yorkey is a WWII-set historical action/adventure art theft thriller which is probably like some sort of anti-heist caper, free courtesy of Christian publisher Baker's Revell imprint.
Currently free @
B&N and
Amazon UK, likely to drop in the main store and will probably also show up at Christian Book.
Goyer's other recent Baker historical thriller was a 1-day only freebie, so I advise you to grab this quickly if you want it and be so kind as to alert your fellow MR members if you see it show up elsewhere.
Description
One enigmatic smile. Two passionate protectors. And a relentlessly ticking clock.
August 1944. Paris is on the cusp of liberation. As the soldiers of the Third Reich flee the Allied advance, they ravage the country and steal countless pieces of irreplaceable art. In fact, Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring will stop at nothing to claim the most valuable one of all--the Mona Lisa--as a postwar bargaining chip.
But the woman with the mysterious smile has some very determined protectors. Can Swiss OSS agents Gabi Mueller and Eric Hofstadler rescue Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece before it falls into German hands?
With nonstop action and intrigue, Chasing Mona Lisa is sure to get your adrenaline pumping as you join the chase to save the most famous painting in the world. From war-ravaged Paris to a posh Swiss chateau, the race is on--and the runners are playing for keeps.
